Senior special

Our elders need to be out and about just as much as everyone else and that is what our boat tour is all about - easy access into remote back country in a comfortable fashion. If you are 55 years or over, this is for you. If you need help boarding the boat, please tell us before your day of travel, we are mobility friendly. Our tours are small group experiences. The boat tour ticks along at a casual pace which means no unexpected surprises or water splashing onto you. $499 per couple.
